Thermal transfer can occur through

• conduction, refraction, and reflection

• convection only

• conduction only

• radiation, convection, and conduction

Molecules of a warmer object collide with the slower-moving molecules in the colder object, transferring energy. This is describing

• convection

• conduction

• radiation
